[QUOTE="buschpoweredstroker, post: 1223085, member: 1426"] Damn, good find! I definitely wouldn't have started under the VC's with all of the other possibilities, especially since it seemed to be running fine when it quit. I'm not sure why you would have 2 dead lifters on the same cylinder, and I'm not sure how the ether could have bent both the intake and exhaust push rod at the same time in the first place. Unless you broke one of the valves and it slammed the broken piece between the piston and the other valve. Just to make sure, are the new push tubes the same length as the originals? I know that they should fall out of the rocker arm and it should be obvious if they are too short. Maybe the bent tubes somehow lifted out of the cup on the lifters and beat the hell out of them, I've never seen that though. Usually unless you get a big enough combustion with ether that it blows an intake boot off, there isn't any major damage, and I've seen boots blow off and have motors that have been fine. Pull the #4 glow plug and inspect to see if something was smashing around the combustion chamber. [/QUOTE]
